Paul Transportation Driver Instructor Receives Recognition

Director of HR, Brenda Rogers, presented Gary Hurd with a framed magazine cover for a story recognizing his heroism.

Paul Transportation’s Driver Instructor, Gary Hurd, was recognized by Overdrive online magazine for his heroism out on the road for helping a man out of his burning vehicle (see link to article below). The first Hero of the Highway act occurred just over a year ago when Gary stopped and administered aid to a young girl who had been involved in an accident.

Gary was a driver for Paul Transportation from April 2010 until April 2016 when he was promoted to Driver Instructor. Gary now leads driver orientation training each week. Not only does he provide a high level of driving knowledge and experience, but he is truly a leading example of what a hero of the highway looks like. Gary’s passion and understanding of trucking and his compassion for people sets him apart.

Paul Transportation President/CEO, Troy Paul, stated, “I am so proud of Gary and the continued pride he exhibits in his profession and for Paul Transportation.” Congratulations, Gary!
